Introduction: The introduction of the virtual occlusal set-up, limited to the permanent dentition with dento-dental and dento-alveolar discrepancies, based on the straight wire technique with final arches .020" x .025" ss in straight wire brackets .
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAim: To show how a self-ligating system can provide bodily movement of maxillary molars without extraoral devices or lingual appliances, reducing the need for patient compliance. The control of these tooth movements has been clinically and radiologically substantiated.
Methods: The biomechanical principles, patient selection, and steps of the treatment are described.
Objectives: the introduction of digital study models in the orthodontic practice changed the traditional stone gipsotec to a virtual gipsotec and the orthodontist has the possibility to see, immediately on the computer, this basic analysis with a great reduction of space and time. The aim of this study is to extend the use of digital models to the occlusal virtual set-up in 3D and have the orthodontist simulate and visualize the resulting occlusion from a suggested treatment plan for the malocclusion.
Methods And Materials: a case is presented where the treatment plan involvers extractions.
Objectives: to evaluate the effectiveness of mandibular repositioning splints in the young and adult patients with TMJ dysfunction.
Subjects And Methods: 23 adult and 14 adolescent patients with TMJ dysfunction selected by Helkimo's index and the criteria of the American Academy of Craniomandibular disorders.
Results: upon anamnestic follow up, almost a total disappearance of the functional pain was reported by all patients, while for the headache, a cyclic onset was present, but with an uncertain etiology.
